A review by heatherbirchall
Xenocide by Orson Scott Card

2.0

This book was really disappointing after the previous 2. The book was way too long and didn’t need to have so many pages. After the realisation of the new OCD Qing Jio became a boring character, and so we don’t get as much out of her character at the end. Also, the book became less and less realistic. I know books 1 and 2 weren’t really realistic but really, is traveling instantly anywhere in the universe really plausible? And creating literal human beings isn’t very realistic either. Also, I understand why it is called Xenocide, but in the end, nothing really would have killed of the different races. -Tristan
